For the second quarter of 2021, the winners are Physician of the Quarter Sree Jadapalle, M.D.; Resident of the Quarter Michael Kingberg, DO, MPH; and Advanced Practice Provider (APP) of the Quarter Machelle Burgess, NP. The awards were presented July 7, at a Cape Fear Valley Medical Staff meeting.

She is in the process of creating the health system’s Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Program Fellowship and will be the Program Director and lead the Adolescent Psychiatry Unit when it opens. She is described as a leading example of professionalism.

Burgess was nominated for her diligent and organized work. The nurse practitioner was described as a prized member of the surgery department, whether rounding on patients, creating work schedules, managing medical students, or scrubbing into the operating room.
